Press Release: City of Westfield Announces New Flex Map for Detailed Data

Westfield, IN - The City of Westfield is pleased to announce
the deployment of the Flex Map viewer. In cooperation with the
Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) and Hamilton County, the City
of Westfield's Informatics Department has configured a new Flex Map to leverage
geographic information system technology while using geographic insight to
reference social, economic, business and environmental data at local, regional,
national and global scales.

The flex map allows users to retrieve specific data such as
address points, commissioner and council districts, fiber locations, PUD
information, public buildings, restaurants, trails, police beats and much
more. This map will allow the public to access data in one
location. Users can choose what information they would like to see in any
combinationand even print a customized
map. Additionally, the flex map improves internal efficiency by allowing
employees to edit features from mobile phones in the field while work is being
performed, which ultimately makes the data more reliable.

"The City of Westfield Flex Map will increase the ability
for the City of Westfield to provide the latest data through our GIS services,"
says Leane Kmetz, GIS Coordinator for the City of Westfield. "Please be
sure to use the feedback widget if you would like to see something different -
after all, it's your map," says Kmetz.
